Elected Aristocratic Monarchy
The Kingdom of Aeriel was and had always been unique in its style of governing. An elected Aristocratic Monarchy is a system in which a popular voted "Noble" would be elected to become the new King or Queen. The process of governing this way in Aeriel dates back to the original Falcon Lords who sought to provide a far more stable a system from the folly of hereditary systems that soon lead to the atrophy of previous Kingdoms. In the early days the kingdom was little more then a simple city-state so the process of elections was far simpilar and allowed for the increase involvment of average citizens into the growing system of law. At its heart Aerielens shunned their original home city of Lordaeron's religious outlooks to focus more on a society based on laws and reason. The mindset of this is well established in the modern Aerielen society as the state remains very secular to the beliefs of any of the primary religions of Azeroth, welcoming all yet never fully adapting any real zealous for them.

The system of elections works that the Crown is to pass among only those of the noble houses and only those who are recognized as nobles with property or holdings of lands. Military service is a plus as well as a deep seeded understanding of the law. From all the noble houses two will be choosen by the current monarch to run in the primary election to decide the next monarch of the Crown. The primary election is done so by all citizens of the kingdom after three debates from either of the two chosen candidates. Once elected by the masses, the Crown-elect will then pass among the noble houses to learn each of their ways in preperation for just rulership. After one month the Crown-elect will be coronated upon the steps in front of Aerie Castle by the Chancellor and the current royal guard commander will sware his alliegence shortly afterwards.
